I used to like Mumford and Sons songs until I found out they were British. Was like finding out Santa isn't real.
I mean I always knew they weren't actually from the American countryside and it was just a costume. I always knew it was, but I did have the illusion ruined by someone else in school tho
Mate, I'm still trying to process learning Creedence Clearwater were from C*lifornia
Northern Cali has plenty of legitimate hick spots, forgivable
No it doesn't:
"Born on the Bayou", "Cotton fields", "Green River", etc. All those songs cosplaying as southerners for what???
They sound great but why the fuck would you pretend to be from 2000 km away
Okay true
Nah, I mean it was shocking for me cuz 1) I thought southern accent was foggerty accent, 2) isn't it weird that a folk/rock band would play SO many songs from so far away? Like, if California was still redneck country in that time, why don't sing about California?
